Chapter 162 Nothing tastes better than dumplings

"Okay, it's getting late. Let's not think about the case. The hole has almost been filled."

Guo Jia stood up, patted the loose soil on his clothes, and suggested,

"I told you not to go back today. Come on, come to my house. Let your sister-in-law make dumplings and let's have some drinks tonight."

After half a day of contact, Guo Jia was outspoken and liked Han Xu and Li Le very much.

Han Xu saw that the sun was almost setting and it would be dark soon.

Although the work is not finished yet, only the finishing touches remain.

Just doing it in the dark is unrealistic.

Li Le laughed and said, "That's really troublesome for Brother Guo and sister-in-law. Team leader, don't you think so?"

Han Xu didn't know what Li Le was planning. He thought he would have to come over to work tomorrow and would definitely not be able to go back, so he had to agree, "Yeah, that would be too troublesome for you."

"What are you talking about? If you are away from home, if you don't trouble us, who do you expect to trouble?" Guo Jia joked a few words, put down his work, turned around and said goodbye to Guo Feng's father, Mr. Guo Genliang.

At this time, Uncle Guo was already a little awake. He saw them working in the pig pen for a long time and refused to let them go, so he went home to eat.

After the three declined the kindness, they left the village together.

Guo Jia's home was in a town not far away. He also drove here, so he led the way.

Han Xu and Li Le followed behind in the Raptor.

The two cars quickly left Guojialing Village and drove towards the town a few miles away.

In fact, even though it is a town, there are not many households left. Most of them have moved to the city.

Guo Jia moved out of the city because of work.

The department allotted him a small courtyard, and the conditions seemed quite good.

Han Xu and Li Le, led by Guo Jia, entered the house empty-handed.

The two of them were really embarrassed. It was the first time they came to visit and they didn't even bring a greeting gift.

Originally, the two of them wanted to buy some fruit or something in the town, but they didn't even see a small supermarket along the way.

I had no choice but to come here shamelessly.

Guo Jia didn't think about this, but warmly welcomed them into the back room.

At this time, Guo Jia's lover had already prepared a table of delicious food. When her husband brought back two young men, he greeted them with a smile.

"Come, let me introduce you. This is my lover. You can call me sister-in-law. These two young police officers came from Yancheng to investigate the case. One of them may have done it. His name is Han Xu and he is already a criminal investigator. The team leader, the other one is Li Le, who is also very impressive.”

Han Xu and Li Le felt a little embarrassed after being praised by Guo Jia for just a few words.

Guo Jia's lover met the two of them and said hello, "Hello everyone, when you come here it's like coming to your own home. Don't be polite. Sit down quickly and I'll make dumplings for you!"

"Sister-in-law, don't go to too much trouble, we can't eat too much." Li Le was a familiar person, and he wanted to help in the kitchen.

Han Xu followed him and sat down while looking at the environment of Guo Jia's residence.

In fact, the conditions in the town are still far inferior to those in the city.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that there is a world of difference.

"Officer Guo, haven't you thought about going back to the city?" Han Xu couldn't help but ask.

Guo Jia smiled and said, "We are all here, so don't call the police officer. I am a few years older than you, so just call me Brother Guo. Alas, actually I also want to go back to the city. No, the child is still in school in the city. It’s not like traveling back and forth to junior high school! But someone has to do the work here, right? We can’t do the work anymore.”

Han Xu nodded, "Brother Guo is right, someone has to do these grassroots jobs."

"It's mainly because I'm getting older and I'm no longer suitable for life and death on the front line. In fact, it's good to come back. I grew up in this area since I was a child. I'm familiar with everything and it's easy to do work!" Guo Jia said while saying , while taking out a pack of unopened Huazi from the drawer of the TV cabinet.

Han Xu said a few polite words and took the cigarette without lighting it.

"Brother Guo, is this town called Yunling Town?"

Guo Jia nodded when he heard this, "Yes, that's the name."

"So there is a case that happened in this town?" Han Xu was still very confident in his memory. After all, he had a system by his side.

"Team Leader Han, you have such a good memory. You are right. There is a case that happened in this town, and it was the last one."

"So, Brother Guo, you chose to come back here, right?"

"Oh, I can't hide anything from you. No wonder you are already the team leader at such a young age. You are really awesome!" Guo Jia had to admire the ability of the young man in front of him. "You are right, because here is The place where the last case happened, so I chose to come back to work, I wanted to be closer to that bastard.”

"Could he be from the town?" Han Xu couldn't help but ask.

Guo Jia shook his head, "I don't know. I've searched the whole town several times since the day I came back. Alas, I didn't find any suspects similar to the murderer. Speaking of which, it's like hell. It stands to reason that the murderer has no idea about the surrounding environment. Very familiar, especially the last case.”

Han Xu understood what Guo Jia meant because he had read relevant information.

Especially in the last case, the time when the police found the victim's body was very close to the crime.

In other words, the suspect does not have much time to abscond!

However, what confused the police was that the murderer seemed to have suddenly disappeared from the world.

The local police station dispatched a large number of personnel and blocked all the main roads, but still did not catch a single hair of the murderer.

It was from that time that the serial killer in Yaoyang City never appeared again!

It was from that time that Guo Jia decided to withdraw from the front line of criminal investigation and returned to Yunling Town alone to investigate openly and secretly!

However, after so many years, he still found nothing!

"Okay, stop chatting, it's time to eat!" Guo Jia's lover came out of the kitchen, took off her apron, and invited the two to eat.

Seeing this, Guo Jia stood up, pulled Han Xu, and said with a smile, "Hurry up, eat! The pork and cabbage dumplings made by your sister-in-law are delicious!"

"I testify that it is really delicious! It smells so good! I have never eaten such delicious dumplings in my life!" Li Le popped out of the kitchen with two plates of steaming dumplings in his hands.

The fragrant aroma spread all over the house, adding warmth to countless families.

Han Xu and Li Le hadn't felt such a warm atmosphere for a long time, and they didn't know where they were for a moment.

After a while, the four of them sat together, eating dumplings and talking about the mountains, and they were very happy.

"Han Xu, what are you thinking about? Eat more!"

"Don't think about the case, look at these dumplings, they are so good!"

"Xiao Le's mouth is like honey, he is so good at praising people!"
